Luke 22:36

I just traded one of my old compound bows to a friend of mine for his 12 guage Mossberg 500. I don't really need another shotgun for hunting, but I thought I could put a little work into it and use it for home defense. It is in very good shape. I am thinking about buying the Bullpup unlimited kit for it. I think it's a really neat kit and I haven't heard of anyone having problems with them. What do you guys think?

I have a 12-gauge Mossberg 590 'Street Sweeper' with 8+1 capacity. There's no doubt at all that it's capable of major carnage, but it would take a lot of desperation to make me want to use it in the house. Basically, if it was a question of saving my life, or saving my hearing.

One thing about the model I have -- probably the same loading mechanics as yours -- is that the gun can't use those clever little 'short' 12-gauge shells. Other folks here will have some serious thoughts about setting them off inside a house, if you're set on using a shotgun.

I like my 500 just the way it is , 20" barrel 8 shot I usually have the pistol grip on , it handles pretty good that way and its still short enough to maneuver in a hallway .
While I don't imagine you'll have a problem with that kit , the bullpup design ( for me at least ) has never felt quite right ... something about moving parts underneath my armpit ( right where that fat little artery is ) ....
Yep , it just don't feel right .

I just bought one of these and would like to know if anyone else here has had any experience shooting one and could give me some info on how you thought it performed? I plan to go to the range this weekend to shoot mine but I was wanting to see if someone here has had a good bit of time to shoot...

Related to this question, I am trying to understand the Winchester Super X family better. For this purpose, the following questions:
1. Is it accurate to say that the current
Winchester Super X3
Winchester Super X4
Winchester Super X Pump
models and their sub-variations are all derivatives...
